Nana, circa 1885
Kas-tziden (meaning "broken foot"), more commonly known as Nana (meaning "lullaby/grandma"), was a warrior and chief of the Chihenne band of the Chiricahua Apache. A trusted lieutenant to Cuchillo Negro and Mangas Coloradas, in the 1850s and 1860s he was one of the best known leaders of the Chihenne (Tchiende), along with Tudeevia, Ponce and Loco. He fought alongside Mangas Coloradas and his mixed Tchihende-Bedonkohe band until Mangas Coloradas was killed while in the custody of the California Column in January 1863. In Mexico he undertook many joint raids with the Nednhi of Juh and Natiza against the Mexicans. After Ponce, Cuchillo Negro and Delgadito were killed too, Victorio took over the Tchihende leadership. During the Apache Indian Wars, he raided areas of Texas and Mexico with Victorio. After several failed attempts to peacefully live on a reservation in their own country, Victorio and Nana gave up trying and fought back against the Americans and Mexicans. The Bedonkohe and Chihenne were joined by more than 80 warriors of the Mescalero Apache under their old chief Caballero. Victorio and Nana therefore had about 200 warriors. During the Apache Wars and especially Victorio's War Nana raided areas of Texas and Mexico with Victorio. Though Nana had been with Chief Victorio when he was killed in the fall of 1880 at Tres Castillos, Mexico, he and several others were scouting for supplies and ammunition at the time, evading the ambush. 68 women and children were captured by the Mexicans and sold as slaves in Mexico. After coming upon the dead warriors, Nana and his followers hide in the Sierra Madre Mountains of Mexico and soon devised a revenge campaign. Several prestigious leaders and warriors, such as Fun (Yiy-gholl, Yiy-joll, Yiy-zholl, also known as Larry Fun), Ka-ya-ten-nae (Ka-e-te-nay, Kadhateni or Kieta - "Fights Without Arrows", "Cartridges All Gone") took the leadership of the Tchihende, Bedonkohe, Tsokanende and Nednhi bands beside the already established Apache band leaders Nana, Loco, Mangas, Naiche, Geronimo and Juh. Though lame in the left foot, suffering from rheumatism, and his eyesight failing, Nana was obviously still strong and in January 1881, he and his men crossed the border back into the United States. Though his group never numbered more than 40 warriors and was often as few as 15, they sought their revenge by raiding Army supply trains and isolated settlers. During those first few months, the band raided numerous small camps in southern New Mexico, killing two miners near Chloride and wounding another; killing four men on the Silver City-Mesilla Road, and in June, raiding and burning a ranch property near Lake Valley in 1881. Soon, a combined posse of civilians and Buffalo Soldiers pursued them into a canyon about ten miles west of Lake Valley. Unfortunately, for the posse, Nana and his warriors ambushed them immediately killing their leaders and wounding a number of others. A full-out gun battle followed that lasted six hours in which at least four more soldiers were killed. Others who were wounded would later die as well. Two months later, he and his band traveled to Arizona, where they were involved in the Battle of Cibecue on August 30, 1881. Nana, now almost 80 years old (according to some reports, nearly 90-years), formed his own war party with the Chihenne (Warm Springs Apache), enlisting loitering warriors in the reservations. His band joined by 15 Tsokanende, 12 Mescalero warriors and a couple of Navajo, plus women and children, began raiding Army supply trains and isolated settlers. In less than a month Nana fought seven or eight battles stretching over the course of 1,000 miles and killed 30-40 Americans, at least as many Mexicans, captured about 200 horses to replace 100 ridden to death and then fled back to Mexico. He and his small force, evaded more than 1,000 soldiers, 300-400 civilian militia volunteers and Apache and Navajo Scouts.
The U.S. Cavalry never caught Nana and his men but fought them in at least seven engagements. Finally, when the band once more fled to Mexico, the U.S. Army gave up for a time, hoping the Mexicans would take care of the problem, as they had done with Victorio. Nana soon joined forces with Geronimo and continued fighting for two more years until he was captured in a surprise attack by General George Crook in 1883 and was sent to the San Carlos Indian Reservation in Arizona. He later escaped with Geronimo and fought with him during his last days of resistance. In 1886, both warriors once again were forced to surrender to General George Crook and taking no chances with them, they and their warriors were sent to a prison in Fort Marion, Florida and Alabama. In 1894, they were relocated to Fort Sill in the Indian Territory, present-day Oklahoma. Nana died of natural causes in 1896.

I love my pupperdoodle. It bums me out we can't do much outdoor stuff together during the summer because the #Arizona heat is dangerous for her but it has given me an excuse to visit the north part of the state more! This picture was taken near Cibecue Falls earlier this summer. Does your dog adventure with you?

Sycamore Falls is one of the most impressive waterfalls in Arizona (next to Havasupai and Cibecue), yet few people have visited these falls or have even heard of them. With the Grand Canyon and Sedona dominating the attention of tourists in Northern Arizona, Sycamore Falls truly is one of the best-kept secrets. Located about 1 1/2 hours south of the Grand Canyon, you’ll find another impressive yet lesser-known Canyon. Sycamore Canyon is a 21-mile scenic Canyon that begins in the thick Ponderosa Pine forests near Williams and ends in the desert landscape of Verde Valley. #jgtravelhopes #waterfall #waterfallvideo #dreamdestination #flowingwatercalmsme (at Sycamore Falls) https://www.instagram.com/p/CI3sItslQihqV0NZgtSnItzP6CnmX2IuqG09jA0/?igshid=1szg4w63zf93i
